jupyterlite-core

This release introduces a new jupyterlite-core package in addition to the existing jupyterlite package.

The jupyterlite-core package provides the core functionality for building JupyterLite websites CLI extension points. Currently it only includes a JavaScript kernel that runs in Web Worker. If you would like to include a Python kernel in your deployment you will have to add it to your dependencies, for example with:

python -m pip install jupyterlite-pyodide-kernel

Or to the LiteBuildConfig/federated_extensions config entry.

The jupyterlite currently provides a couple of shims as well as the Pyodide kernel for better compatibility with existing deployments.

We recommend you start using the jupyterlite-core package more for your deployments, and additionally install a Python kernel such as jupyterlite-pyodide-kernel or jupyterlite-xeus-python.

jupyterlite-pyodide-kernel

The Pyodide kernel has been moved to its own repo: https://github.com/jupyterlite/pyodide-kernel

Currently it is still installed by default with jupyterlite for convenience, but it is not part of jupyterlite-core.

A consequence of this change is the renaming of the pyolite JavaScript packages:

• @jupyterlite/pyolite-kernel -> @jupyterlite/pyodide-kernel
• @jupyterlite/pyolite-kernel-extension -> @jupyterlite/pyodide-kernel-extension

Make sure to update your config if you were making use of litePluginSettings.
